104 TIMELESSNESS AND THE REALITY OF FATE
One of the facts nullifying the theo-
ry of evolution is the incredibly
complex structure of life. The DNA
molecule located in the nucleus of
cells of living beings is an example of
this. The DNA is a sort of databank
formed of the arrangement of four different
molecules in different sequences. This databank
contains the codes of all the physical traits of that living being.
When the human DNA is put into writing, it is calculated that this
would result in an encyclopedia made up of 900 volumes. Unques-
tionably, such extraordinary information definitively
refutes the concept of coincidence.
by coincidences. The probability of pro-
teins, the building blocks of a cell, being
synthesized coincidentally, is 1 in 10 950 for
an average protein made up of 500 amino
acids. In mathematics, a probability smaller
than 1 over 10 50 is considered to be impossible in practical terms.
The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of a cell and which
stores genetic information, is an incredible databank. If the information
coded in DNA were written down, it would make a giant library consisting
of an estimated 900 volumes of encyclopedias consisting of 500 pages each.
A very interesting dilemma emerges at this point: DNA can replicate
itself only with the help of some specialized proteins (enzymes). However,
